XRP Price Forecast Hinges on Passage of CLARITY Act

The XRP price has been stagnant despite several positive catalysts in 2026, and experts believe that the passage of the CLARITY Act could be the key to its recovery.

According to ChatGPT's forecast, if the bill passes, XRP's price could reach $3.50 to $6.00 as ETF inflows re-accelerate and institutional adoption scales. This range assumes that the macro environment stabilizes enough for institutional money to start flowing back into crypto.

If the CLARITY Act fails to pass, analysts predict a lower trading range of $1.00 to $1.50 for XRP through the rest of the year. In this scenario, the token's price would likely follow the movement of Bitcoin, which is currently trading between $65,000 and $75,000.

The CLARITY Act would make XRP's commodity status permanent law instead of a regulatory opinion that can be undone by a future SEC chair. The bill has already passed the House but is currently stuck in the Senate Banking Committee.
